Gyeongbok Palace
The palace was originally constructed in 1394 by King Taejo and “Gyeongbokgung” was named by minister Jeong Do-jeon. Gyeongbokgung was continuously expanded during the reign of King Taejong and King Sejong the Great, but part of the palace was burnt down during the Japanese invasions of Korea (1592-1598). During the regency of Daewon-gun in 1867, the buildings were reconstructed and formed a massive 330-building complex with 5,792 rooms. Standing on 4,414,0000 square feet (410,000 square meters) of land, it was a symbol of majesty for the Korean people and the home of the royal family.
